PRODUCTION NC (1/8" steel) — slug tabs banded 0.018 small / 0.033 large, none under the
machine's 3/4" drop-through; start point (= tab position) on a flat, never a corner, circles at 12:00;
cut order sequenced so the head avoids rapiding over pieces already cut and still tab-held.
Tabs: 0 small,
7 large,
0 omitted. Every slug is numbered in the CSV — report failures by number.
The material string MSO7,0.125 is a GUESS and keys the condition table: confirm it at the machine before running.
Healed DXF = cut geometry only (one layer, closed contours — this is
the file for QC or the machine). Bridge-review DXF = the same geometry plus mark-up
on separate CM_* layers (rings, measured web, proposed width, notes) — reading material,
not cut paths. Mark-up only is that annotation on its own, for opening alongside the
cut file if your CAD's layer handling gets in the way. All R2000-2002 (AC1015), $INSUNITS = 1 (inch).

Bridges & narrow webs
Raster/component test at 20 thou/px on 60 thou material:
every candidate web is cut in the material raster and the part re-labelled — a piece
that separates only because of those cuts was being held by them, so it is a
real island and those webs are its bridges. Everything else that is narrow is spacing.
7 narrow webs · 0 real bridges holding
0 islands · 4 islands with no bridge at all.
0 bridges at or above the table — left alone (client's file, in spec).
0 bridges under the table — proposal drawn, geometry not moved: .
7 narrow webs that are not bridges — tight letter spacing; the fix is layout, not a cut edge: 4 thou @ (58.43, 4.43), 5 thou @ (27.01, 42.79), 5 thou @ (27.57, 43.04), 5 thou @ (57.88, 4.18), 5 thou @ (85.06, 46.07), 6 thou @ (57.88, 4.18), 7 thou @ (0.38, 1.15).
Widths are defaults from the house table and belong in operator
Preferences, editable per laser and per location (pin 2b).
FAIL — 6 open contours. Max deviation vs true source: 0.72 thou.
